AI Flow 0.1.50

The Fusion lane: AI Flow runs a board that lives in Autodesk Fusion with the same steps, gates and ledger as a KiCad board. The router, the pour planner and the KiCad DRC gate work offline as before; every live step lands in Fusion through the Fusion bridge (1.11.30 or later), one edit at a time, read back from Fusion's own export. See the Fusion lane.

  • start --board <board>.brd --remote-board fusion:<document>: the Fusion board is converted for the offline steps (parts, pads, nets, outline, tracks, vias, pours with Fusion's fill). Pads and vias are sized from the board's restring rules, as Fusion sizes them.
  • Live steps in Fusion: place land, land route, land vias, land pours, measure, and Autodesk's own DRC in finish. On a Fusion run, route plans on the live board.
  • analyze and finish judge the board as it is in Fusion now (board-live.brd), and adom-fields solves that file directly.
  • New unroute --net <net> (both lanes): takes a net's tracks and vias up so it can be routed again after an analysis.
  • land route skips a trace only when the board's copy is at least as wide as planned, so a widened net lands again.
  • Molecule parts are recognised whatever their case (Fusion upper-cases package names).
  • Proven on the 12 V to 5 V buck molecule built in Fusion: two refinements from the field solve (an SW patch cut off by a GND track, a VIN via ring), then a clean finish.
